Deng Xiaoping and the Transformation of China

By Ezra F. Vogel

Belknap Press of Harvard University Press

Ezra Vogel is a renowned scholar on China and Japan who rose to international prominence in 1979. He offers a portrait of China's great reform leader Deng Xiaoping, the driving force behind China's radical transformation in the late 20th century. Deng confronted the damage wrought by the "cultural revolution" (1966-76), and loosened the economic and social policies that had stunted China's growth. Obsessed with modernization and technology, Deng opened trade relations with the West, which lifted hundreds of millions of his countrymen out of poverty. The book provides a detailed study of Deng's dedication to bringing the world's largest nation into the modern world. This book should be read by anyone who wants to understand the domestic and international dynamics that have led to China's rise as a great power.
